Wright’s Furniture & Flooring, a fifth-generation family-owned business, credits much of its success to its ability to innovate while staying true to the company’s roots of customer and community service. The business, which is celebrating its 132nd anniversary this year, is now delving into new territory by creating a one-of-a-kind, locally-made mattress line called The Wright Sleep Mattresses. The 1889 Firm and 1889 Plush mattresses are both made in Central Illinois and are now being sold at Wright’s Furniture & Flooring locations in Taylorville and its flagship store in Dieterich.

“It’s been an exciting process for us to create a product like this,” said Wright’s Furniture & Flooring President John Wright. “We wanted something exclusive to Wright’s that you can’t get anywhere else and that we would be proud to put our name on. It’s a product that we know will last a long time and will help give people a better night’s sleep. To be able to say that the product was also made in Illinois and we don’t have to worry about supply chain issues, was an added bonus.”

Wright said a few of the features that make their new mattress line unique include its graphite-infused memory foam, which sleeps seven times cooler than traditional memory gel as well as the copper-infused ions which can be absorbed into the skin and may provide health benefits such as reducing inflammation. The line also touts a unique high-gauge steel spring, imported from Switzerland, which is designed to ensure long-lasting and consistent comfort. Wright said one of the most important differences is that their mattresses undergo a unique pre-compression process.

“We made this line with customers in mind, knowing the things they care about and would like to see in a mattress,” said Wright. “The compression process used on these mattresses, as opposed to tufts or buttons, is an important part because it will ensure that the mattress will last and keep its original shape longer.”

The new Wright’s Sleep line is part of three exclusive brands that are only available at Wright’s Furniture. Those include The Wright’s Sleep Mattresses, Lifestyle Upholstery and Ultra-Reclining Furniture.

Because The Wright’s Sleep Mattresses are made in Illinois, Wright said the store will be able to accommodate specialty orders and restock items sooner. The company will continue to carry other big brand mattress lines such as Serta, Simmons, Sealy, Spring Air, Bemco and Tempur-Pedic.
